Thominet takes over the controls at ECS

General sales and service agency ECS Group has nominated current chief operating officer Adrien Thominet as its new chief executive . He will take over the role from Bertrand Schmoll, who will continue as group chairman.
Thominet will be in charge of rolling out the group’s strategy to become “a leader in the rapidly evolving global digital economy” and help “develop a new business model to reinvent the way GSSAs currently work”.  He will also lead the sales strategy and will focus on product and service developments. 
Thominet said: “I look forward to working with everyone at ECS group in my new role and leading the company into the next growth phase while continuously strive for innovation and improving the services to our principals.”

Thominet joined ECS Group in 1995 as commercial manager of the company’s AeroCargo business unit, where he subsequently became managing director and then chief operating officer in 2011.
 
Schmoll said Thominet’s appointment was “the logical next step in the growth trajectory of ECS Group. He has got a really good reputation within the group and in the industry.”
Bertrand Schmoll will concentrate on strategic development, mergers and acquisitions and addressing the challenges of new technologies.
